The new regulation issued in Mar-2018 and taking effect in Sep-2021 is to alleviate this.
There is no mandating of more advanced headlight systems, which have actually been legalized in Canada since March 2018. It is still up to manufactures discretion to offer/enable these features. Nothing is changing from that perspective.
